I would be interested in a Poll

I would be interested in a poll taken of people who have voted for the winners in previous presidential elections. My father, who is a Republican, has voted for the winner in every Presidential election since 1964 (the first election he could vote in). He voted for Johnson, Nixon (2x), Carter, Reagan (2x), Bush I and II and Clinton both times. My father is undecided for this November. I would be interested in how people like he plan on voting because I think these people are the one's who will make or break the Bush.

1. I am curious

since he is a Republican, why did he vote for Clinton not once but twice?

2. Because Clinton was actually an old-school conservative. It's just

that these days, that qualifies him as a liberal.

3. Because he felt...

that Bush had done a poor job as President. And he felt that Bush didn't even act like he wanted to be elected.

4. I think he's asking about 1996 -

as in, why as a Republican he picked Clinton over Dole, not just over Bush.
